The thumb tip is the most powerful gimmick you can carry in your pocket.

In 1970 Vernet revolutionized the world of magic with the release of his famous thumb tip. For more than forty years Vernet has been using cutting edge technology to make the most realistic thumb tip ever seen!

Finally Vernet is releasing a DVD with more than thirty unique and fantastic routines! With this DVD you'll be able to release all the potential this extraordinary gimmick has.

These routines are truly professional, extremely practical and with really clever methods!

Key points: DVD is taught in Spanish with English dub. Many effects are taught for a king size thumb tip

How are the production values: The Performer offers a studio performance and explanation standing against a red curtain. Mostly the entire video is performing for a stationary camera with a few close up shots for detail.

Is it well made: Many effects are taught for a king size thumb tip

Is it well taught: Aside from the English dub, I felt it was easy enough to watch and listen to.

My thoughts (what I personally liked/disliked): I thought it was odd that most of these effect required a king sized thumb tip, but the TT included was a medium sized

Storage? Does it "pack flat?" fits neatly in your pocket

Does it "play big?" the thumb tip is an instrumental tool in the magician’s arsenal.

Difficulty / Skill level required: These are beginner level effects, that said… I wish I had a video like this when I had first bought my thumb tip.

How much arts and crafts are involved? none

How practical is this in the real world? (can it really be done?)

Overall score: let's toss out the traditional score of 1-10 and make this something that we all can appreciate and understand.
